Dear Darling

Dear darling

Dear darling allow me to write you an open letter
And be explicit about my feelings
Remember a good story has more value when it is told
And let people hear how lucky I am to have you

My life without you was meaningless
Forever stressed and making poor judgments
And I attracted many ailments
Ailments that I could have escaped by sticking with you

I’ve known you for years yet I was so blind to see you
Now that we are fond of each other
I’m going to hold you tight and never leave you
I feel younger each day just because of you

Forgive me if I’m to explicit about our private life
But you do me well when the mood is right
To carry you around enhance my muscular fitness	
And speed up the pace of my heartbeat

But then after heated rounds I sleep like a baby
To be honest my love, you set my mind free
And for all the goodies, I pay no fee
Not even once you've let me down

Dear darling, you can stop me if I’m exaggerating
The moments I’ve spent with you 
You've lessened my stress and eliminated my depression
I bet you can see that I’m always happy around you

My brain works better than any complex machine 
My quality of life has improved because of your loyalty
Miles we’ve travelled has brought us even closer 
With you on my side not even the sky is the limit.
